Achara’s place is a great place to stay when you are in Bangkok. It is very spacious for a condo in Bangkok and was able to easily accommodate our family of 4 without any problem. The place is exactly as described. It’s very clean, quiet, and kid friendly. The building is secured with security personnel and cameras. Main entrance requires proper access to get through. We felt safe during the two weeks of our stay. There are washing machines on the 2nd floor. If you would rather go out and have fun than do your own laundry, I strongly recommend Glory Laundry (right next to 7/11). It’s inexpensive. They did a great job for us, and the owner is extremely nice. Note that you’ll have to wait about a day or two to get your clothes back and they are closed on Thursday.
As far as the surrounding goes, It’s not too far from Sukhumvit line BTS (Punnawithi and Udom Suk stations). There are plenty of motorcycle taxis, public shuttles, and Taxi all over the area pretty much all day, in case it’s too far for you to walk.
If for some reasons an on-site 7/11 and Top’s supermarket (right across the street), which sell everything you can think of, don’t have what you are looking for, you can pay only 15 baht to get on BTS, get off at On Nut station and you are right next to a very large Tesco Lotus that will definitely have everything you need. There is also ‘101 The Third Place’ (True Digital Park) nearby, which contains a large variety of stores and restaurants.
Not to mention so many local restaurants out along the street, great Dim sum (Waraporn Salapao) right across the street, and open-air market (Mahasin Market) 5 minutes away that has tons of fresh Thai street food. You’ll never go hungry. Check Google Map for their exact locations.
Last but not least, host (Achara) and her manager (Ann) are probably the nicest host and manager I have ever dealt with through Airbnb. They are very polite, responsive, and accommodating. I have nothing but nice things to say about them. I will definitely be back the next time I’m in Bangkok.
